Drum riser with carpet:

Backing tracks: Will be sending six backing tracks via 8 foot XLR cables from an Alesis HD 24 located on the bass rig. May need a drop snake in that location.

IMPORTANT:   Mixing board should be equipped with padded channels for these tracks

Eight AC inputs: Four inputs between bass rig and drums and four inputs behind guitar rig

Four monitor mixes:

                          Mix 1 – (TRAVIS) two wedges placed at center stage front and side fills if available

                                        He may use Shure PSM 600 in ears system depending on his ability to hear stage monitors

  • Mix 2– (DAVE) one wedge placed in front of guitar rig – monitor should be aligned with front of drum riser to allow the full front of stage for Travis to move the full width of the stage

    •  

  • Mix 3– (DICK) one wedge placed in front of bass rig – monitor should be aligned with front of drum riser to allow the full front of stage for Travis to move the full width of the stage

  • Mix 4– (CURT) no wedge - drummer uses his own sub-mixer with headphones – needs XLR or Ό inch "unpowered" input for his mix

    Monitor Mix Distribution:

     

  • Mix 1– (TRAVIS) Lead vocal as hot as possible / Moderate level of keyboard, acoustic and background vocals from the HD 24 backing tracks

    Lighting: This is a re-creation of a show in the 50s so moving lighting should be kept minimal

    Medium wash on entire stage with color and brightness changes for mood

     

    Spotlight should remain on Travis at all times– he is doing dance moves during solos. We prefer the spotlight angle from overhead rather than directly from stage level.

    When Travis is in the audience please bring the house lights up – use of the spotlight when he is in the audience should be discretionary with regard to having the light in the eyes of audience members
